Moultrie. Gregg, BatteryW agner and oilier fortifications. Thebattery was a very strong earthwork,! cated "ii the upper end of Morris[slant!, tin- work having been constructed under tho direction of the? est engineers of thc Confederacy.There was considerable preliminaryfighting leading up to the main attack.The Federals had constructed batteries under the direction of lien. Gilmore on the oilier end of Morris Island;:nd were preparing to make things decidedly uncomfortable for thc Confcd* rates. Au attack on t he fort on dulyII was repulsed with severe loss to thc !Federals. Cob Charles H. Olm.steadand thc Savannah troops participatedn thc defence on that occasion.Gen. W. IO. Taliaferro, of Virginia,whose death was recorded in yesterday's Mnrnhvj /Veinq was in commandof the fort, and Judge Twiggs spokefeelingly of his old commander. Hewas assistant inspector general on thcstaff, of which Lieut. Henry C. Cunningham and Dr. Joseph Clay Habersham, of Savannah, were also members.Besides thc batteries which Gen.Gilmore had constructed on the island,thc enemy had a number of monitorsand gunboats in thc river, which dailyshelled thc fort, and made things asunpleasant as possible for the Confederates. Thc garrison was ?ouiposed ofless than 1,500 men from North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia.Opposing them were thc enemy withover 0,000 men ; forty-two large siegeguns in their four land batteries, anda number of S, 10, 12 and 15 inch gunson their monitors.The day was one which ho will neverforget, Judge Twiggs said. Karly inthc morning bc breakfasted with Br.Harper, of Augusta, one of thc surgeons, their breakfast consisting ofhard crackers and butter, thc latterbeing considered a treat. Their mealwas interrupted by a Parrott shell,which buried itsolf in tho earth outside tho door and then exploded,throwing up a large amount of earthand filling thc pail containing thcbutter with sand. It was the beginning of tho bombardment. Theyforesaw that thc fort was to bc assailed by thc entire. land and naval forceof tlie enemy. The whole seventyguns of thc enemy opened, and foreleven hours the air was tilled withshot and shell of every description.Thc Confederates replied as best theycould, but their armament was farinferior to that of thc enemy, andmany of the:.r guns were soon disabled.Thc infantry resorted to tho bombproofs, the roofs of which were almosttorn away by the constant explosionsof the sheels which fell within thefort. The wooden buildings in thefort, which had been used for officers'quarters and medical supplies, weretorn into splinters. It was a hot Julyday. and thc men in the bomb-proefswere most uncomfortable. Gaillard'sbattalion, from Charleston, preferredto romain on thc outside, shelteredunder thc wall of thc parapet.The blazing July sun was obscuredby the clouds of smoke from thc bursting shells. The fort shook like a shipin thc grasp of a storm. All thoheavy guns on the sea face of thc fortwere soon disabled, and but for thebomb-proofs and thc parapets the garrison would soon have been annihilated. The halliards were cut by 'bcshot and thc garrison flag fell. Astore of men ran for it at once. Fourofficers seized hold of it, carried itback to thc parapet and ran it upagain. This occupied some littletime. Capt. Robert Barnwell, seeingthat thc flag had fallen, seized a regimental battle flag, and, rushing outupon thc ramparts, held it therewhile the garrison colors were replaced. Thc scene of Sergt. Jasper's exploit .it Fort Moultrie was in full viewof this scene. "There was one Jasperat Moultrie/' said Judge Twiggs.'There wer." a ?cor?; at Wagner."Thousand? of people at the Batteryand on the housetops at Charlestonwritched thc bombardment with cagerinterest. When the garrison flag felltheir hearts fell with it, for they feared the garrison had surrendered.WAGNER..ri j >t ioii < > 1 ilif VLomorIVitrlit.-^ll< .Ye/c.t, M't ) rh 'J.j When tho Hag wu.s replaced a shoutwont uji from thousands of throats,i and thousands of women waved tin irI handkerchiefs towards th'' HUD in ike! fort.illidge Twigu-i's remark- upon ihe: ;0 ii ti UM; ii I attaching to a Hag nf one'scountry .n on- cdgreat applause.

This was followed by an clo- !. iquent panegyric upon the Confederate jbanner.\s the sun was -inking in the westthe bombardment ceased, to the greatrelief of the garrison. The ominous |pause was well understood, however.The supreme moment had arrived.Having failed to reduce the fort hy .bombardment the enemy's entire force :was to le- hurled against it. The ussault was about Intake place, l?en.Tiiliaferrd had wiseley taken tin- precaution early in the bombardment ofremoving the smaller guns out ?d' theway of the enemy's shells. 'J ney :were promptly remounted, and theramparts manned, and the whole .sea \and land face of the fort was linedwith glittering steel.The enemy evidently supposed thofort to have been practically destroyedby the bombardment, and they wouldmeet with but little resistance. Whilethe fort had been battered beyond recognition almost and the heavy guusdisabled, the garrison was still in goodshape aud in good spirits. The Federal column was (?.0011 strong, undercommand of Cen. Seymour. It consisted of three brigades rrom the 10thand Lith army corps. The columnmoved forward in regimental front,led by thc 51th Massachusetts, a negroregiment, commanded by Col. RobertC. Shaw. Tho Federals were orderedto usc the bayonet only. Not a shotwas tired from either side as the ?olumn advanced. There wa* an oppressive silence, and the rays of the settingsun danced and shimmered along thclines of bayonets. The Federals werein a short distance of the fort whenthey gave a cheer anJ. rushed upon it.Immediately a dead fire crashed forth.The fort was lit with flame from bastion to bastion. Thc 1,500 rifles andthc artillery poured in a witheringflame at short range. The Federaltroops came gallantly on, beatingagainst the fort like the waves of thcsea. There was a harvest of deathand men fell like ripe grain before thesickle. The enemy pushed gallantlyon. Hundreds crossed the ditch atthc base of the fort and many leapedtho parapet tobe transfixed with bayonets or hurled below by the defenders.Owing to the failure of the Federalcommander to allow for the proximityof the creek near thc fort the attacking force was crowded together on anarrow strip of land between the creekand the fort. This resulted in confusion and the crowded masses offeredsplendcd opportunity to thc men inthe fort, thus greatly augmenting thcloss, ffhe 54th Massachusetts brokeand fled, breaking the columns of theregiment behind it and thc entire brigade rushed to the rear completelyrouted.Gen Seymour then ordered Col.Putman to advance to thc attack withhis brigade, but he refused to do so,saying that bc had been ordered to remain where he was by Gen. Gilmore.Afterwards, however, he gallantly ledforward his brigade without orders.They were received with terrible tire,but crossed the ditch, entered the fortby the southeast bastion and pouredinto the parapet. Another brigadeI was ordered to advance, but Gen. Seymour was shot down after giving thoorder. Ile repeated the order as hewas being borne from the field, but itwas not obeyed. A number of Putnam's men had found refuge under thcparapet, where they defended themselves while awaiting assistance. Seeing that no aid was in prospect, Putnam leaped upon the parapet, followedby his officers, and called upon hismen to hold their position to the last.Ile was shot down. Ile was as braveand gallant a man. said the speaker,as ever marched beneath thc Stars andStripes. His brigade was repulsed,andu terrible lire poured into it as itretreated.

This process has beenj adopted in Italy to some extent, whereit was received with so much favorthat the bakers were compelled to cutprices to meet the new competition.lt is known as thc "anti-spire"method. It is made directly from thewheat, and a great saving in the costof manufacture is credited to it. Afterthe wheat has been thoroughly siftedand cleaned it is subjected to a hathin tepid water for several hours.When it has thus been soaked it ispoured into a machine, which reducesit to a homogenous paste. This machine is composed of a double line ofthin spirals working in opposite directions. By these spirals the softened wheat seeds are well kneaded. Atthe end of thc spirals is a doublecylinder which receives the paste andmakes it still more compact and readyf<>r shaping into loaves and baking.The quality of the bread made hythe new process is variously estimated.Rxcellcnt judges and unprejudicedpractical bakers admit its excellence,and say that any taste can be suitedby having due regard to the leavening,manipulation and treatment in thcoven. Italian experts who have investigated the matte?' express themselves favorably upon itf 'igestiveproprieties and pronounce it mostnourishing. In eolor the "anti-spire"bread is very brown : its odor isagreeable and taste quite palatable. Acardinal virtue claimed for it is thatit never gets mouldy and will remain"fresh" for days.The bakery at Borne charges threecents a pound for "anti-spire" bread,thirty centimes per kilogramme (twopounds)-but when the establishmentis opened in the morning at S o'clockworkingmen may buy it for two centimes per kilogramme cheaper.So serious has the bread questionbecome in Italy that many cities havesuspended the local tax on bread andbread stuffs, the Milan authoritieshaving arranged with thc local bakersto reduce the price of bread to thirtytwo centimes per kilogramme. AtLeghorn such are the necessities ofthe poor that pality to all who ask forit. Thc applicants must, however,present themselves at designated bureaus at certain hours and are notallowed to take the bread away withthem: they must cat it in the premiseswithout meat, cheese, vegetables orcondiment.-Ph ?hui el ph in Record.- One good way to keep thingsmoving and to lessen the talk of hardtimes is for every man to pay his debtsso far as possible.

C., Mareil Atouching chapter in the history of thedispensary law was enacted here totoday. A week or more ago as a dispensary constable was driving alongthe road between this city and ReedyUiver factory, he met an old man in awagon with his two daughters, one awidow with two children. The wagonwas searched and about four gallonsof whiskey were found. The constable brought the occupants of the wagon to town and a charge of transporting was lodged against the old mau,Dan Ballew. It was a cold, windyday and as the old mule pulled thewagon slowly into town the womenand children looked half frozen intheir thin and scanty garments. Theparty was moving from Reedy Hiverfactory, where some of them had beenworking in thc cotton mill, back tothe old home near Glassy mountainin the upper part ol' the couuty.They were allowed to take their team,which was by law confiscated to the: State, on promising to return it, whichthey did. The wagon and mule hassince been in a stable in this citywaiting for the day of sale. Todaytho wife of old Rallew and her widowed da"fihters came to town, makingthe trip f 20 miles, by starting earlyin thc morning. As they sat by thefire in the sheriff's office in their faded cloaks and brown sunbonnets, itwas a good subject for a charactersketch. By special request of thewomen, who had come instead of Ballew, who is a partial invalid, ConstableLaFar agreed to sell the mule andwagon today so that they might havea chance to bid them in. Thc womenthou went out to mortgage their littlefarm and raise the money to buy backthc team.They told a pitiful story of theircondition and the old man's affliction.Constable BaFar expressed to themin a gentlemanly way his sympathy,but at the same time said he wouldhave to do his duty in carrying outthe law and the team, thc only onethey possessed, must be snld at auction.The daughter is thc widow of one ofthc Howard boys who was killed someyears ago at Mountain church in oneof the Sunday duels, which have written the history of that section incharacters of blood. They are moreintelligent than many nf their neighbors and talked grammatically butwith the peculiar intonations and gestures of thc mountain people.Thc wagon and mule were put up atauction and were bid in by Mrs. Ballow for $29.25.
